High-Martial World: System Arrives 30 Years Late-Chapter 364 - 297: True Power Lies in Setting the Rules, Watermelon Juice!

Chapter 364: Chapter 297: True Power Lies in Setting the Rules, Watermelon Juice!

The phone vibrated, and Su Mu swiped open the message for a look.

It was a belated anonymous email.

"No. 15, Alley of the Pedestrian Street, New World Entertainment Club, Room Tianzi No. 1..."

Just a few minutes before, Su Mu’s phone received a bank transaction text, arriving simultaneously with the anonymous message.

[Card ending 7588: 12:08, deduction of 300,000,000...]

Three billion low-grade Spirit Stones.

This was the cost to purchase Sima Xie’s real-time address, and Su Mu had made dual preparations.

The channel through which Su Mu inquired from Hong Lie led to the information that Su Mu sought; under the official website of the Huaxia Martial Arts Association, there was a forum known as the ’Martial Artist’s Heart.’

This is the darkness under the sun, a gray area.

On the Martial Artist’s Heart forum, as long as your offer is high enough, you can buy many things that cannot be shown openly.

Forbidden cultivation resources, items controlled by Huaxia, certain cultivation technique information, etc.

Su Mu made dual preparations, asking for the address from the elder at South China Saint Martial University while already posting a message on the forum. Recently, someone secretly provided him with information on Sima Xie and demanded the astronomical price of three billion.

Su Mu understood this very well.

No one wants to incur the wrath of the Overlord Blade Saint Martial Hall.

"People die when they’re killed, it’s as simple as that."

Blood flowed in Su Mu’s hands, and his expression was very calm.

Ever since the Qingfeng Martial Saint entrusted Sikong Zhi with those two letters for Su Mu, he had had thoughts of killing the Sima father and son.

But back then, he wasn’t strong enough.

After the Giant Ruins, this desire grew even stronger.

It became especially intense after Su Mu met Li Liangshu, reaching its peak.

From that moment on, Su Mu made a firm decision.

First kill Sima Lin.

Then, before anyone could react, kill Sima Xie as well.

Send this father and son to hell together.

Ye Wanqing’s challenge provided Su Mu with inspiration, birthing the idea to kill.

That day, Su Mu called Uncle Hong; he wanted the war zone to amplify the battle’s momentum, to build a grand stage.

He needed a stage large enough so that he could mix up everyone’s, every force’s attention.

Prior to this, Su Mu collected a lot of information about the Overlord Blade Saint Martial Hall, including many hall masters. According to these records, the other hall masters of Overlord Blade Saint Martial Hall were obsessed with the Sword Dao.

Only Sima Lin gained his position through connections, and Sima Lin was known for holding grudges.

Success lies in the heavens, planning lies in man.

Therefore, after this, Su Mu quietly spread the news that someone had accepted the SSS-class bounty from South China Saint Martial University, then deleted the message himself after some time.

As expected, it worked out just right.

The grudge-holding Sima Lin bit the bait.

During this period, Su Mu learned from Uncle Hong that this Celestial Pride competition also involved a struggle over destiny and the hidden qualifications for being a Martial Saint, which further twisted the vision of all the major powers.

This was very beneficial to Su Mu.

The Martial Arts Association, the Ye Family, the Sword Pavilion, and other forces came for destiny and the qualification for the Bone Marrow Cleansing Pool, while Su Mu’s killing intent was naturally concealed beneath these layers.

"Ye Family..."

A Spiritual Light flashed in Su Mu’s hand, revealing an ancient-shaped martial arts classic, with four large characters boldly engraved on the hardcover:

Formless Three Flowers!

This was the Ye Family’s secret transmission, ranking third among the ten great Three-Flower Techniques!

Of course, the one in Su Mu’s hand was not the original, just a reproduction by Ye Family descendants, and only part of it, but it was enough.

The Ye Family played a very crucial role in Su Mu’s plan.

As a top-tier Martial Arts Family in Huaxia, the Ye Family’s arrival not only diverted everyone’s attention but was also essential for Su Mu’s advancement to Grandmaster.

Su Mu’s foundation at the sixth level was so perfect and strong that even the Great Sage’s cultivation technique "Cyan Lotus Martial Seed," at the pinnacle of the ten great Three Flower Techniques, was not enough to bear it.

Among the descriptions of the ten great Three-Flower Techniques, there was a saying about the Ye Family’s ’Formless Three Flowers’: no one is better at sealing the Three Jiao Gate in this world.

Therefore, to fully control the Three Jiao Gate, Su Mu’s idea was to integrate the ’Cyan Lotus Martial Seed’ with ’Formless Three Flowers,’ two Three-Flower Techniques.

So he began a transaction with Bai Ji and the Ye Family.

Su Mu offered a Bone Marrow Cleansing Pool slot, along with part of the cultivation technique of the second-ranked Three-Flower Techniques, the ’Three Flowers of the Sage.’

He also promised not to leak anything.

On that day, Su Mu had Bai Ji bring a space ring containing part of the ’Three Flowers of the Sage’ to the Ye Family, and with their insight, they could certainly tell if it was genuine.

Su Mu’s offered transaction terms were very generous, so the Ye Family gladly accepted the deal.

A short time ago at the foot of Celestial Cloud Mountain, Su Mu and Ye Wuhen completed this transaction.

At this moment, Su Mu unwittingly learned that this time the Ye Family handed over the transaction rights to Ye Wuhen, and this transaction did not have to proceed until Su Mu, at the top of Celestial Cloud Peak, triggered the unprecedented phenomenon of a thousand kuns and a thousand monkeys.

Moreover, with a single punch, he killed Sima Lin.

Coupled with his direct move of throwing out the space ring during the transaction impressed Ye Wuhen greatly, prompting Ye Wuhen to choose to finalize the transaction.

Because he found it very interesting, Ye Wuhen wanted to see how far Su Mu could go.

Ximen Gu from the Sword Pavilion had a similar thought.

"But my current strength is still not enough..."

Su Mu’s hand suddenly tightened, flesh and blood tearing apart as a headless corpse crashed to the ground, and a bloody head fell into Su Mu’s hand.
